The crew assembles again at the boilin hole on the Mayo River, NC. Kyle, Mike, Guy, Evan, P5 and I take on the different lines available at this awesome little park and play. We even had Tracy and Nicholas along for moral support! I suspect Tracy will begin this journey as well very soon. We continue with Whitewater Kayaking 101. We practice seal-launches, work through some difficulties in picking approaches, lines, switching to Plan B and dealing with flushy seams as well as focus on the importance on not giving up on the roll. The guys are all trying to transition from paddling to avoid a flip to paddling through a rapid intentionally and effectively. That will all come together with securing a confident roll sometime in the near future. For now, we are just showing these learning experiences on video as we hope it will help others going through the same struggles. Hats off to the guys for being big enough to allow their learning moments and mistakes to be highlighted for the world to see. Come along and hopefully we can all learn something! Oh, and ... I almost swam!
